    PC randomly restarting with a Watchdog error bluescreen


    So for the last few days I've been having my PC restart randomly into a bluescreen after all my monitors freeze during either gaming or watching youtube, it gives me a watchdog error on bluescreen on after rebooting, when I checked windows event I found this with multiple errors generated "The description for Event ID 7021 from source Netwtw12 cannot be found" along with something called e2fexpress error, I think its related to my network driver? which I'm pretty sure is updated, it generated a mini-dump log which I posted here, any help would be appreciated as Ive been having multiple issues

    :)

    PC Randomly Restarting after installing new Ram!

    Tried your suggestions, but still had a restart! Also ran memtest overnight (13 hours according to memtest) and had no errors! Also ran Passmark Burn in test for a couple hours testing everything and had no errors or restart. Could fitting the new ram have triggered something to go bad like my mobo or psu?

    Computer randomly has black screen and restarts

    Taco this could be software also. Before you get all crazy, do as Erocker suggested. Find out the error in the Event Viewer. Look for the faulting module and the error code itself. Also check the reliability monitor. At the bottom it will have "View all Error Reports". Post a screen of whats in there if anything.

    This could be a simple as a bad driver install.

    ALSO have you downloaded or installed anything lately? STAY OUT OF THE DAMN BIOS UNTIL WE KNOW THE ERROR! lol. I know you. Baby steps boy, baby steps.

    PC randomly restarting with a Watchdog error bluescreen

    DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION bluescreen windows 11

    Hello,

    As the title may suggest, i've been experiencing a bluescreen quite frequently that keeps repeating DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION.
    I don't know how to fix this issue, i've gone through windows updates and I've updated all my drivers as far as i'm aware.
    Even after using sfc /scannow it's still happening.
    I enabled Driver Verifier and waited until it would bluescreen again and now it has.
    I'd love to know what is causing my PC to bluescreen.

    Kind Regards,

    Strieb
